Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these:
Look mom, I posted it again!
Hitomi, my constant companion

Fiant conlationesruat cælum!

Hello! My name is Fredrick Brennan. Wikipedia thinks I'm notablefor some reason.[dubious ]

When I made this account, I knew I wanted to write, but I wanted to be anonymous. But, after years of volunteer work on Wikipedia, I decided anonymity was costing me more than it was worth—I couldn't openly share my work with friends nor use it in my curriculum vitae without concern that I would be doxed. So, on 12 May 2020 I decided to dox myself on Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. As they say, the rest is history.

My username is pronounced /psixedelisto/ in the International Phonetic Alphabet. It is an Esperanto word with a sense similar to psychonaut.

My prime areas of interest and expertise are linguistics, writing systems, Philippines related topics, law, computing, and typography.

I speak multiple languages (see right), among them Japanese, so I also edit Japan-related topics, especially Japan topics that I think are under-covered on Wikipedia (so, anything that's not anime, manga or Japanese video games). Feel free to ask me language questions, or for translations, (only if you will use my input to improve an article, I will not give free translations just for your curiosity,) and I will do my best to answer.

Please feel free to let me know if I have made a mistake anywhere, either as regards facts or policy.

  1. ^ Probably not the best way to solve this problem, but it works for me. YMMV.
  2. ^ This script was written to add the full case name to People of the Philippines v. Ampatuan Jr., et al.. Yup, that's it.
  3. ^ Use some simple heuristics to save a lot of time when adding long lists of case names to articles like Disini v. Secretary of Justice. Code's not the best, but it's not meant to be beautiful, it's meant to solve quick problems.
  4. ^ The VisualEditor, (very annoyingly!), doesn't name references added by users, and gives them names like :0, :1, etc. This script fixes that automatically. Might be buggy, only ever tested on osteogenesis imperfecta.
